>it's a democratic government that can easily be voted out.
The group of individuals handling this data are more than likely to be bureaucratically appointed rather than democratically elected.
>It doesn't help anyone cling to power.
On the contrary, it is human nature to do so.

There is no need for any conspiracy theories to acknowledge that in almost any democratic states of these days "states within a state" exist when it comes to surveilance and intelligence services. While political function owners come and go with each election, those organisations seem to be more structural conservative following agendas which reach beyond any legislative period.
